Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 472 Reinforcement

Faced with such a situation, Li Yuan felt a little helpless, thinking that this kid Li Shan is too capable of making troubles, is it appropriate for him to be in charge of the Daizhou General Manager's Office?
Not to mention other things, this season, just relying on a name, can attract [-] Turkic cavalry to attack... In the words of later generations, the ability to pull hatred is too heaven-defying.

Moreover, yesterday I received a memorial from Li Xiaogong, King of Zhao County. After solving the worries for the future, the Tang army is preparing to concentrate its forces to attack Dangtu, Wuhu, and Zongyang. Two fronts will fight. , and the Turks sent more troops to attack Daizhou...

"Yugu set up a plan to force Huairen to go out to fight." Princess Pingyang said suddenly, "Why don't you send Huairen away?"

Li Yuan was a little moved, this is a way... If Li Shan is transferred away, the Turks must retreat.

Li Shimin noticed Li Yuan's attitude. In fact, this war is indifferent, but the key is... Before the Jianghuai war, Li Tang could not start a large-scale war with the Turks. His father was afraid that Li Shan would either actively provoke or be passively provoked, which would lead to The battle is up.

After thinking about it in his heart, Li Shimin nodded and said: "What the third sister said is that Li Shan will be transferred away, and another general will be sent to guard Daizhou. There will be no worries."

As soon as the words fell, Li Jiancheng raised his voice and said: "Li Huairen has not yet been crowned, but he insisted on defending Yanmen to resist the Turks, and made extraordinary achievements to force Yuan Junzhang to surrender. With such great achievements, he has not been promoted to the throne, and his father entrusted him with important tasks. How can he be easily transferred?"

Li Shimin was expressionless, thinking in his heart, sure enough... the prince is now, as long as I agree, he opposes, as long as I oppose, he agrees!

Well, actually the reverse is also true.

Li Jiancheng leaned forward, "Father, order Daizhou's assistant officials and generals to set off immediately, mobilize troops from Guanzhong and Hedong, and maybe let the younger brother of King Rencheng send some troops to go north."

Li Yuan glanced at Li Jiancheng, and then at Li Shimin. Although he usually sided with the East Palace, he valued his second son's opinion in military terms.

"If Huairen is in charge of Daizhou, and the Turks attack aggressively, what can we do?"

Li Jiancheng stood up and said, "Father's words are wrong. If there is no Huairen, wouldn't the Turks invade Hedong?"

Sensing Li Yuan's questioning eyes, Li Shimin's lips trembled, and he said: "Brother's words are reasonable, but if there is no righteousness to make suggestions, Chuluo Khan and Jieli Khan may not be heavy troops."

Li Yuan nodded slightly. This was indeed a reason. It was inevitable for the Turks to invade the territory. However, it was precisely because Princess Yicheng of the former Sui Dynasty was interfering, the timing and strength of the Turks' troops were affected.

Individuals also have influence on the war. As a figure who forced Yuan Junzhang to surrender, killed Yugushi, and captured Yugushi alive, the time and strength of Turkic troops this year may also be affected.

Li Jiancheng glanced at Li Shimin who was facing him, and said with a light smile, "What the second brother said is also reasonable, but Huairen has made outstanding achievements, if he is transferred..."

Li Yuan had a bit of a headache. He knew what the eldest son meant. With Li Shan's meritorious service and the fact that he was actually in charge of the Daizhou Governor's Office, he really couldn't find a suitable position.

If he was called back to Beijing a year ago, even a relatively poor position would be fine, at worst, he would be promoted to the Duke of the county or even the Duke of the State as compensation.

But now that he is in charge of the Daizhou General Manager's Mansion, it would be unreasonable to recall him to Jingzhong again.

Princess Pingyang on the side watched coldly for a long time, and said in a low voice: "If the Turks attack aggressively, at least five months."

Procrastinate for a while, anyway, as long as Li Shan does not go out to fight, Yanmenguan will be safe, and he will be transferred back to Beijing or transferred to another post before the Turks invade.

Li Yuan made up his mind and directly ordered, "The assistant officials and generals of Daizhou who were appointed years ago set off immediately to go north, and mobilize [-] troops from Guannei Road, Jingzhao, and Hedong to garrison Daizhou."

Li Tang's military system, farming on weekdays, training in leisure time, and being ordered to go out in case of war, but it is not without standing troops, it is not difficult to mobilize [-] soldiers from the three ways.

Zhongshu ordered Yang Gongren, Zuo Pushe and Pei Ji to respond one by one.

Li Yuan hesitated for a while, then continued: "Order Li Daozong, the general manager of Bingzhou, to send some teachers to the north to help guard the Yanmen Pass."

In fact, Li Yuan is quite satisfied with Li Shan and Li Daozong, the two governors of Hedong. Although they are young, they are both outstanding, and they don't get involved in the matter of seizing the heir... It's just that Li Daozong is cautious, and Li Shan...

Li Yuan was stunned suddenly. In fact, Li Shan was quite cautious in dealing with things, but why did he make such a fuss...and it seemed that he was a victim every time?
The news quickly spread. The East Palace, Princess Pingyang's Mansion, and Tiance Mansion all took actions. Not counting the mobilized troops, only the generals and adjutants who went to the post were surrounded by personal guards. Heavy horseshoes sounded at the city gate from time to time.

At the same time when Xue Wanche, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Gongjin, Ma Sanbao and others led their guards to set off, in the camp tens of miles away from Mayi, the leaders of the Association stared sullenly at He Lou Xingshu and Li Sanlang opposite.

"What does he want to do?"

He Lou Xingshu bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty just wants to step back temporarily."

"Temporary retreat?" The association led a sneer and said, "Then Yuan Junzhang sent troops to hunt him down?"

The Turks are different from the Han people. They are best at fighting with the wind. If they retreat, the leaders will be difficult to control.

He Lou Xingshu strictly followed Li Shan's explanation, "Mr. Lang is now in charge of Daizhou General Manager's Office."

The complexion of the association rate changed. After Li Daen died in the battle the year before last, he heard that Li Tang had withdrawn the prefectural governor's mansion, but he did not expect it to be re-established now, and it was still the same person.

The association rate is not as good as Yu Sheshe's brain, but he has figured out something... Li Shan's sudden notification of this matter should be related to the alliance.

"You only need to retreat westward with one step, or approach Mayi." He Lou Xingshu said softly: "Your Majesty will send me to inquire, and capture him again. What are you looking for?"

The association rate's face changed drastically, and he stood up abruptly... He didn't expect Li Shan to ask this question, to think of such a plan.

If Yugushe loses to Li Shan for the second time, or is even captured alive by Li Shan for the second time, no matter whether he can survive or not, his prestige will be reduced to the lowest point... Even if he is the son of Khan, he was captured twice , what qualifications do you have to look forward to?
Although Jieli Khan has many wives and concubines, he has only one son so far!
The rate of association couldn't help thinking of a month ago in Mayi City, Yu Sheshe mentioned privately that this person has a three-inch tongue, like Su Qin and Zhang Yi.

Obviously, Li Shan's proposal hit the heart of the association rate and Tuli Khan behind the association rate.

The leader of the association slowly sat down, "Yugu set up relatives to raise five thousand horses to attack Yanmen, and a certain rate led the headquarters to confront Yuan Junzhang...should go west..."

After a pause, the association rate glanced over the two, "Two envoys, one returns and the other stays."

"A certain Li Fang, a member of the Li clan in Dai County, was recommended by Mr. Lang. Although he is insignificant, he is also an official of the seventh rank." Li Sanlang took a step forward, "I am willing to stay."
